Mary Doria Russell Quote
As far as Wyatt Earp knew, it was not illegal to beat a horse. In the past few years, he’d worked as a part-time policeman in a string of Kansas cow towns. Each time he was sworn in, he made an effort to study the ordinances he was supposed to enforce, but he wasn’t much of a reader. In Ellsworth, he asked a lawyer for some help. Wyatt, the man told him, the entire criminal code of the State of Kansas boils down to four words. Don’t kill the customers.
